There has never been a conclusion on the issue of copyright. China has been cracking down on piracy for many years, but it has been unable to crack down on it. It has been banned repeatedly because the public has these needs, and it is difficult to combat public demand. In China, the piracy market is booming and developing rapidly. Nowadays, copycat versions have appeared again, and pirated versions are even more openly present in the market.
The issue of copyright on the Internet is even more unclear, and there has never been a clear regulation on copyright. Furthermore, the Internet is a platform for resource sharing, and copyright issues are even more difficult to resolve. Webmaster News admin5.com "A woman in the United States downloaded 24 songs from the Internet and was ordered to pay $1.93 million in damages." Such a thing is hard to imagine in China. Different social environments have different views on the same event. Some time ago, the copyright issue of film and television works also became a hot topic. Many forums also discussed whether video websites need to pay for copyright issues?
In the Internet age, due to the sharing of information resources, reprinting and collection are very common. Few people investigate the source of the work. An article is circulated around and many different versions are formed. Copyright issues were not discussed. But should we learn from the above-mentioned issue of American women being fined for singing?
China's legal society is improving, and the Internet's legal system is gradually improving. Plagiarism and reprinting on the Internet are also very common. In China's social environment of "people don't sue officials, they won't be held accountable". If the interests of a certain party are not seriously violated, they will generally not be sued. However, with the rapid development of the Internet and the rapid spread of information, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will be sued. affect the interests of some people. The information collected by the webmaster today does not constitute infringement and will not affect the interests of certain people. However, it is possible that tomorrow, the collection will constitute infringement and he will be held responsible.
To build a website, early collection and reprinting are necessary. Innovation starts with imitation, and you develop your own website based on the achievements of others. But collection and plagiarism are not the right path after all. If the Internet strengthens the protection of original information, collection and plagiarism will become passive. Instead of spending a lot of time collecting information every day, webmasters might as well use this time to create something original. After all, original articles provide a sense of security, and you don’t have to worry about being passive. Just imagine, if the article you worked so hard to write was published by someone else with their signature and website link, how would you feel? Would you watch your hard work go to waste? I believe you won’t, So please also be considerate of the original creator’s feelings. Therefore, it will be possible to protect originality and copyright on the Internet. Society is progressing and the Internet is constantly improving.
Therefore, Mengjiang recommends that webmasters start learning originality from now on. The protection of originality on the Internet will not be implemented in a day or two, but it will definitely be carried out in full force at a certain time in the future. Instead of passively accepting it at that time, it is better to start learning originality now and change from passive to active. From modifying original articles to creating original ones, from writing a paragraph to writing an article, from reprinting a piece of news to integrating a category of news, re-editing, adding your own subjective thinking, step by step, and continuous progress. In fact, it is not difficult to write original articles and organize original information. It just depends on whether you have the intention, persistence, and correct mentality.
